    Amends GS 18B-1104(7) and (8) to authorize breweries to sell their malt beverages at their breweries, upon receiving a permit under GS 18B-1001(1) and receiving approval from the governing body of the city or county where the brewery is located, as specified, regardless of the results of a malt beverage election. Authorizes breweries to sell their malt beverages at up to 10 other locations in the state.

Sale at additional retail locations is not considered a wholesale under ABC laws.

    Amends GS 18B-1116 to exempt breweries qualifying under GS 18B-1104 (7) or (8) from the provisions of that statute concerning financial interests in, and lending or giving things of value to, a wholesaler or retailer with respect to the brewery's transactions with the retail business on its premises or other retail locations.
